HI JIM! I'm the Paul McCartney lookalike you met on two occasions in my hometown of Lincoln, England. My band (Laurie Bennett and The Models) opened for you at Grafton House on the 21st of September 1998, and I came to see you in the Farrel&Black band on 6th and 7th of March 1999. Maybe you remember you guys let me play Hey Joe and Suzie Q with you. Having just bought the recent book Necessity Is... (which has your web address in it) I knew I'd just have to say HI! and THANKS FOR COMING TO TOWN, MAN! The gigs were awesome and I hope to come and see you with the Muffin Men when you play Sheffield in May. If you see Richard Ray and/or Beau Peep, say hi from me! All the best!

Howdy Jimmy! Scott told me that he communicated with you recently. How's everything in Germany? It was really good seeing you and the guys on that last tour, and having you rehearse at our house was quite enjoyable! I hope we'll be getting to tour Europe sometime soon, I really miss it! And of course it would be great to see you over there, write some songs, or do something, even if it's wrong! Best of luck to you! Let's keep in touch. Cheers, Terry Rogers

Hello Mr.Black, Allow me first to introduce myself. I am the bass player that is currently working with Mo and Darryl (and Gary, on occasion when he is in from Phoenix) I did not know you had a website until Mo told me today. Matter of fact, we took Mo to lunch for his birthday today. We had some mexican food that was pretty tasty. Anyway, it is indeed a honor to be able to write to you. Your sons speak very highly of you and I am anxious to hopefully meet you someday. We are working on a lot of different styles of music right now, which I think is kind of a feeling out period, if you know what I mean. Every night we work we feel a little more solid. We feel it will take some time but that is what it is about. I look forward to meeting you someday, and we will keep you posted on our progress. Take care for now and drop me a line if you get a chance. Your friend, Bob

Hi Jimmy !!!

My cousin Ivan gave me the URL. Cool to the max to say the least, after all these years to see you live here too. I had no idea. I was 7 when my mom bought some mothers albums at Woolworths in Ark City Ks. in 1967 ( or was it 69 ? ) .I wonder if Mom still has those LP's ???? Hey, it would be great to meet up sometime. I play drums myself every once in a while....had a rock band in the Aschaffenburg area a couple of years ago, nothin famous....SHERWOOD ROCKS our name. I had fun, but have had a real long vacation from playing since we broke up. What have you got planned for 2001 ? I'd thoroughly enjoy meeting you and hearing your music. It would be even bigger and better if my cousin Jim could be with you for a change. Remember Motorhead ? He's lookin' good lately isn't he ? Cowboy hat and short hair....hee hee.

How !

Curtis

Like your sculpture very much. Reminds me all my drummer friends lift weights. Like lifting, carving sure keeps the arms and shoulders in shape. I appreciate your comments on Elandee. The whole Everyman Studios group are heavily in debt to you guys. Our cartoons are many times reponses to your work, and certainly you guys were always a presence while we were doing our wildest and best work.

My dear FreeWorld members, I am sitting here on a Sunday evening listening to a local 'Dead' show. It is unfortunate that it is only an hour long, but "Beggars can't be choosers." This is Jason and Anna (and Jorik) coming to you dead via the internet.Tonight I have been thinking of the many Sunday evenings (and Monday mornings) we (as a family) have spent with the FreeWorld family. Not just you guys, but the caravan that follows. I miss the comradare and love. We will see you soon!!! Love from OKC

Jim, Met you [in passing] in Birmingham UK in 1969, when you played there. Saw you at Albert Hall '67 and Festival Hall '68, you went to 'hustle chicks in the audience, in your Hendricks wig'. Then a week after Birmingham you were all at the Albert Hall again. Ian Underwood played Mozart and you all threw Noel Redding about, who looked so tiny. Great fun.

Then when Frank toured with the 'Vaudeville Band' we pissed him off by shouting 'Hey, What happenned to Jimmy Carl Black!' He got shitty and told us to shut up.

We had a brief chat at Dingwalls in '94?

Funny how you identify with people when you are 16/17. Now as a mid fiftys guy I still look out for you.

Just bought your 'new' Grandmothers album, and I leave now to give it a spin.

Keep on drumming,

Nigel, A Fan

Dear Jimmy..I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley just west of CUCAMONGA!.Right out there on route 66 with the Freak Pachucos.I was 12 years old when Freak Out was issued and since I was already playing drums,loved doo-wop,humor,social commentary and free form music I was hooked right out of the gate and remain so.I learned alot about music from the Mothers.Get home from school,crank-up my little mono record player,jump on my tiny Ludwig set and play along with Feak Out,Lumpy Gravy ,Money,Abso\Free,Weasels and sadly Burnt Weeny.Those were the days!I even had a copy of Memories of El Monte wich I found at the Amvets thrift store in Azusa.I made a living[?]playing drums in L.A.for about 12 years.There was a bunch of Motherism lurking and oozing around the edges of our employable presentation wich would become more evident as the gig wore on.You can't play here if you're just gonna make fun of the music.I'm very glad that you guys are still going at it. All my best to you and Mothers Ray,Roy,Motorhead,Don,Artie,Bunk and Ian.Real Pachucos never forget. Yer Fren Mark
